    I hate everything

    I had Friday off so I worked solid Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Didn’t go anywhere. Just stopped to eat, sleep, bathe, find new thing to watch/listen to. The stupid weather being crazy made me have a migraine the ENTIRE TIME and it’s still on-going today. I’m ready to rip my head off. I’m so so so sick of embroidering. On…

Here’s Kylo Ren: whatever Here’s Lando: meh not happy with how his clothes turned out. Heres Ahsoka: Pretty happy with her! I started…

    A super quick art post

    I managed to finish my prequel trio!! So I’ll have all 4 sets available as prints at Visioncon. Here’s Anakin His pose ended up being stiffer looking than I wanted but OH well. Obi-Wan: I like how this one turned out, pretty happy with it. I decided to put them both in their Clone Wars looks… more interesting to draw…

    Rogue One art

    I have absolutely no progress to show on my embroidery because I mean, it all looks the same. Hi here’s another flower it took me 4 hours of my life and it looks exactly like the other 24 I’ve done already. I am ALMOST done with the bottom half. I should finish it up this weekend. And my hope is…

    My life is nothing but embroidery

    I embroidered all weekend long. Like all day Friday non-stop while I had the day off. Found Unsolved Mysteries (the old Robert Stacks episodes!) on Amazon Prime and just dug in. All day Saturday, just stopped to run out to breakfast with my parents and a few errands (needed more embroidery floss). Sunday morning I took a break to start…

    Some art and some embroidery and a day off

    I misspelled embroidery in the title and it was “broidery” which I think is the manly bro version of embroidery. So I finished a couple of other art things recently, in that Star Wars series I’ve been doing. First up is Luke I’m pretty happy with how he turned out. And then Han Pretty happy with this one, too. I…

    some art, some stuff, some dolores

    It’s been a long week, I had a dentist appt that I thought would be short and easy and it wasn’t, it totally wiped me out. Not from like, the actual work done, but from the anxiety over it, before and after. Ugh. But I’ve spent all week printing my costume photos in the evenings which has been a lot…

    Dolores, Kuwait, and the Sims

    It’s a super random post today. First up, I’ve already talked about Carrie Fisher’s passing both on FB and instagram so I’m not going to do it here. I don’t want to talk about it no mo. In happier news we booked our hotel for Celebration. We are going to do 3 days at Disney, 1 at Universal, and 1…

    Glinda!

    So mom and I have been working on a simplified version of Glinda’s “Popular” dress from Wicked. I keep saying it’s a theater project, but it’s not really for a play – but it’s for a theater related project. Anyway, we went a few weeks ago and picked out fabric, and mom has been working on the skirt. I’m in…

    Christmas tree!

    So Thursday night Chase had a meeting but I really wanted to decorate the house for Christmas, so I attempted to do it on my own. Everything kinda went ok, I managed to get the tree up by myself and got all the lights on. And then I decided I hated all the lights so, so much. The problem with…

    Various art and stuff

    Ok really there’s no “and stuff”… it’s just art. But the title seemed too short. First up is this Edith sketch from a month ago. I started colouring a while back but I got bored and haven’t finished it. Don’t know if I will so I thought I’d go ahead and upload it. Maybe I’ll at least finish her hand,…

    A weird weekend

    This weekend did not go as planned. Friday we were going to go see Fantastic Beasts… but I was still feeling a little under the weather and wanted to save my energy for the con Saturday, so we stayed home. That night, I did finish the Phis and Gracyn that matches the other SunDowner character refs I did a few…

    Some more art

    I finished up the other two Disney princesses the last couple of days: Cinderella, meh, she was my least fav of the 4 I did. Snow White. I’ve also gotten all of the art pages/galleries finished and updated so if you wander into the art link in the menu above, it should be easier to navigate. As soon as we…

    Is it Disney time yet???

    So Friday and I had my “re-do” of my doctor’s appointment from earlier in the year – the one I had the panic attack at and they sent me away! No panic attacks this time. BP was still high but not as bad as last time. It’s over and done with for a year! But I for the past couple…

    A Gigantic Dump of Artwork

    So I mentioned a couple of weeks ago that I knew I had “a couple” of sketchbooks in the attic at my parents, that I’d seen them once when I had to go up there a few months ago. I wanted to go over and grab them and see what was in them, mostly driven by knowing that some of…

    A whole lot of stuff

    So I was planning on getting all this stuff done this weekend – clean up the house, repack for Disney, do a bunch of laundry… did I get any of it done? No, not a bit. Instead, I watched way too much “Say Yes to the Dress,” went a con, did a photoshoot, went to the Elmwood Twilight Tour, and…

    a redraw, a redo

    Still going back through the archives, fixing old posts, making them public, categorizing them and adding headers… currently about half way thru 2002. I’m hoping maaaaaaybe I’ll be done before I go out of town! I know I’ve talked a lot of website, old stuff, old art, etc lately, because that’s what I’ve been filling my time with — I’m…
